Evaluation of genetic diversity of okra accessions [Abelmoschus esculentus (L. Moench)] cultivated in Burkina Faso using microsatellite markers
Mahamadi Hamed OUEDRAOGO, Nerbéwendé SAWADOGO, Téyouré Bénoît Joseph BATIENO, Wend-Pagnangdé Marie Serge Félicien ZIDA, Ali Lardia BOUGMA, Antoine BARRO, Zakaria KIEBRE, Mahamadou SAWADOGO
Okra is a traditional vegetable grown throughout Burkina Faso. Despite a food and non-food valorization of all parts of the plant, its genetic diversity is still little known. Thus, 50 accessions of okra from Burkina Faso were characterized using 19 microsatellite markers in order to determine the level and structure of genetic diversity. The(...)

Potentials of an Eco-Friendly Composite in Hot-Dry Climate
Fati Zoma, David Y.K. Toguyeni, Ousmane Coulibaly, Ivon Hassel and Abdoulaye Ouedraogo
This study aims to show the aptitude of a locally made composite for providing thermal comfort and mechanical resistance in buildings in hot-dry climates. The thermal characterization reveals that the thermal diffusivity of the studied material is lower than that of commonly used materials such as agglomerated and full cinderblocks and laterit(...)

Controlled fermentation of the zoom-koom dough using two isolates of lactic acid bacteria (LAB 1 and LAB 5) as starter cultures: Effect on hygienic, rheological, nutritional and sensorial characteristics of the final product
91. TAPSOBA Fidèle Wend-bénédo, Hagrétou Sawadogo-Lingani, Donatien Kaboré, Sandrine Zongo, Diarra Compaoré-Sérémé and Mamoudou H. DICKO
Zoom-koom is a popular non-alcoholic beverage in Burkina Faso, which is based on cereals and mainly
produced by women with important socio-economic implications. This study aimed to evaluate the
effect of controlled fermentation using two selected isolates of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) as starter
cultures, on the rheological and hygienic qu(...)

The Effect of Atmospheric Oxygen on the Puffing and Bursting Phenomena during Vegetable Oils Droplets Vaporization Process for Their Use as Biofuel in Diesel Engine
Zongo, A.S., Daho, T., Vaitilingom, G., Piriou, B., Valette, J., Caillol, C., Segda, B.G., Higelin, P. and Koulidiati, J
The past literature on the use of vegetable oils as fuel in diesel engine revealed that utilizing vegetable oil fuels in diesel engines may require property changes in the oil or perhaps, some minor engine modifications or operating changes. This study was conducted to search for the effect of atmospheric oxygen on the puffing and bursting phe(...)

Aedes Mosquitoes and Aedes-Borne Arboviruses in Africa: Current and Future Threats
A. BADOLO
The Zika crisis drew attention to the long-overlooked problem of arboviruses transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes in Africa. Yellow fever, dengue, chikungunya and Zika are poorly controlled in Africa and often go unrecognized. However, to combat these diseases, both in Africa and worldwide, it is crucial that this situation changes. Here, we review(...)

Resolution of isolated syringomyelia after removing thoracic disc herniation
EL OUADIH Youssef, COLL Guillaume, HARO Yakouba, CHAIX Remi
Syringomyelia is an abnormal cystic dilatation of the spinal cord caused by excessive accumulation of CSF (cerebrospinal fluid). The pathophysiology remains complex and unelucidated. We report a rare case of resolution of cervico-thoracic syringomyelia after thoracic disc excision in a 3 months follow-up time.

Uses and vulnerability of ligneous species exploited by local population of northern Burkina Faso in their adaptation strategies to changing environments
Salifou Traoré
Arid and semi-arid areas of West Africa are highly subject to climate change effects. This is combined to other drivers such as population growth and livestock number increase. To cope with such changing environment, endogenous adaptation strategies of poor local communities rely on the use of natural resources through empirical knowledge. Unf(...)
